How about graphite frames, Bart? Talk about maintenance-free and no risk

galvanic interaction.

Graphite conducts electricity. I just Googled galvanic series
and was surprised to find Graphite on the top of the list.

So graphite frames would cause Asperenda's copper to corrode!

I know it's on the nobility list, but I've always assumed that it won't
allow ignoble metals to plate themselves upon it. So how will that cause
galvanic corrosion? If the copper ions are released, where will they go?
I'm not being contradictory--I'd really like to know. I've never quite
figured out why graphite is atop the list.
